The use of "renpy.pause(hard = True)" is causing the game to crash, and I don't know why

[LewdEdits]

No sure what I'm doing wrong on my end, but what's causing the issue, at least how I understand it is the use of $ renpy.pause(hard = True).
As far as I understand, I'm using correctly, I've used it before to stop the game from going anywhere, but recently it keeps brining up this error screen when I use it.

Below is the label I'm jumping to that has it and causing the crash.

Code: Select all

label YourRoomStart:
    scene bg_YourRoom
    show screen nav_control
    show screen map
    
    $ renpy.pause(hard = True)

And here is the error message I'm seeing.

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I've been stuck on this issue for 2 days now, I'm so lost.

Update, my current "fix" has been to start a new project and copy everything relevant over, I'm not running into the same issue as of yet.

Seems I might have narrowed down the issue to a single misplaced comma and lack of quotation marks.

Code: Select all

screen nav_control:
# Your Room Navigation
    if room_tracker == 40:
        imagebutton:
            auto "navigation/B_Nav_%s.png"
            focus_mask True
            xpos 200 ypos 880
            action Jump ("YourRoomStart1"), SetVariable ("room_tracker", 42)

On the last line, I had typed out

SetVariable (room_tracker, 42),

I adjusted that and it seemed to have solved the issue, at least for now.
